If we consider a transition to a circular economy, it is very easy to feel overwhelmed at the scale of the task ahead of us, It would be easy to feel a sense of paralysis, where we ‘cannot see the wood for the trees’.
However, there are steps we can take immediately that will have a big impact on our sustainable footprint and, if we all did a little, it would add up to a lot.
Organised by Recolight, the industry’s leading environmental compliance authority the event is part of the lighting industry’s journey to a low carbon, circular economy.
Transformation to a Circular Economy is an essential requirement for manufacturing businesses. This will become ever more important as demand for resources rises, and energy costs increase.
Recolight Circular Economy webinars have been attended by lighting manufacturers, users, designers, specifiers, distributors, and contractors – the whole supply chain.
It has been encouraging to see both the appetite for more information, and the very practical issues that have been raised by our presenters and discussed by the panellists. The understanding of how our industry can really become sustainable is evolving – and that needs change right across the supply chain.
Recolight are encouraged to see the lighting industry taking steps to become more sustainable. It is a given that we produce light sources that are very energy efficient. Moving beyond that and adopting Circular Economy principles in how we manufacture those products will soon be a ‘must do’, and not just an ‘ought to do’.
Joining the Sustainability Revolution | A practical workshop showing how to implement a remanufacturing process
An in depth one day workshop designed and presented by lighting product designer Simon Fisher, who also sits on the BS8887:221 committee.
The workshop will guide attendees through all aspects of setting up a remanufacturing service, including key design principles for the LED light source, compliance testing, and the use of BS8887:221.
Recolight are exhibiting in October and November 2024.
